Op  ^*»e  various  literary  and  scientifick  work',  which  trp 
[  continually  offered  to  the  public,  none  mo- e  frequently  re- 
quire revision  and  amendment,  than  gtographical  compila- 
tiona.    This  may  be  principally  attributed,  to  the  insUbi- 
lity  of  things  liable  to  fluctuation,  and  the  perpetual  chan- 
ges, to  which  nations  arc  subjected.    In  no  part  of  the 
world  are  these  effects  more  observable,  than  in  the  Uni- 
ted  States.    The  peat  prosperity  and  rapidly  mcreasing 
population  of  the  country,  cause*  a  gradual  and  conatant 
extension  of  settlement,  which,  in  a  few  yem,  change! 
a  wildemesa  to  a  state  of  agriculture,  improvement  and 
civiliiationj   thus  fumishmg  new  topographical  descrip- 
tions,  or  rendering  those  more  perfect  that  were  previoua- 
ly  published.    The  principal  merit,  therefore,  of  a  work  of 
this  kind,  consists  in  accommodating  the  delineations  to 
the  sute  of  geographical  improvement,  and  selecting  such 
articles  and  facts,  as  the  works   of  travellers,  or  other 
sources  of  information  may  afford.    To  render  the  present 
edition  worthy  of  public  approbation,   the   method  was 
adopted,  of  addressing  letters  to  the  various  post-towns  of 
the  union,  but  particularly  to  those  of  the  West  and  South ; 
the  publications  of  Morse,  Spaffbrd,  &c.  made  this  mea- 
sure unnecessary  beyond  New-York ;  by  this  means  several 
hundred  articles  have  been  inserted— they  are  not  to  be 
found  in  any  other  geographical  work.    The  population  of 
the  principal  European  towns,  has  been  corrected,  and  ui 
some  instances  given  as  late  as  1811 ;  those  of  the  UbL 
ted  SUtes,  when  practicable,  is  inserted  to  1814,  other- 
wise  the  population   is  taken  from  tlie  census  of  1810

WMhington,  according  to  the  li»t  pul.lisheil  by  tlie  Post- 
MMter-General  in  1813.    The  latitude  and  longitude,  us 
well  u  the  dlgtancea,  of  all  tlioae  places,  situated  on  the 
main  post  road,  between  the  Eutern  extremity  of  the  Dis- 
trict of  Maine  and  St.  Mary's  in  Georgia,  are  taken  from 
an  actual  survey  of  that  road,  made  by  order  of  the  gene- 
ral government  in  1812.      The  manufacturing  establish- 
ments of  the  different   towns  in  the  United   States  arc 
noticed,  and  the  various  military  transactions  of  the  late 
war  have  been  mentioned.    Care  has  been  taken  to  curtail 
useful  information,  as  little  as  possible,  while  at  the  samQ 
time,  the  redundancy  of  trifling  local  details,  which  is 
too  frequently  the  feult  of  large  (Jazelteers,  has  been  avoid- 
ed.    The  present  publication,  it  is  confidently  believed, 
Vill  not  only  be  found  convenient,  as  to  its  portable  form, 
ind  vahiable  as  a  book  of  reference,  but  also  useful  and 
Entertaining.     Solicitous  that  this  volume  should  be  dis- 
tinguished, as  well  by  the  beauty  of  its  appearance,  as  by 
its  intrinsic  merit,  the  publisher,  to  tlie  fineness  of  the  pa- 
per, and  neatness  of  typographical  execution,  has  added 
elegant  Maps,  which  wei«  not  promised  in  the  origmal 

prospectus. 

Information  relative  to  this  work,  is  respectfully  soli- 
rited.  To  those  gentlemen  who  furnished  the  Editor  with 
communications,  he  returns  his  sincere  acknowledgments,

the  channel  is  somewhat  wider,  but  is

disunce  of  about  one  mile  from  the

forc«l  inio  a  narrow  chaiuiel,  rises  at

the  eonnuence  of  this  river,  is  a  small

teaches  the  head  of  the  rapids,  or  cuiii- 
neneement  of  tlie  great  falls,  narrow- 
ing as  it  approaches.  Here  the  hills

ahieli  makes  its  way  over  the  rocks, 
far  tlie  space  of  320  jioU's,  with  a  de- 
iceat  of  30  feet ;  in  this  course  tho  c ui^

a  benutifnl  cataract  of  26  feet,  5  inch- 
n:  this  does  not,  however,  fall  perpen- 
Acular,  hi  ing  slopped  by  a  part  uf  the 
rock  which  prujecis  at  about  one  thiifl

Slid  little  falls,  at  an  estimated  descent 
tt  thirteen  and  a  half  fiet,  till  it  is 
jiiiittti  by  a  large  fountain  boiling  np

««&  of  8  feet ;  its  water  is  perfectly 
clear,  and  of  a  b^uisli  cast,  which  it  pre- 
H'cveii  after  minf;liiig  with  tliu  main

tain the  river  descends  with  increiiiiiig 
rapidity,  until  it  is  narrowed  to  473 
yinls,  and  here  forms  a  K^uid  cataract 
tf  47  feet,  8  inches,  by  falling  over  a

ser. This  is  one  of  the  most  beautiful

which  is  only  380  yards  wide,  rushes 
over  the  falls  to  the  depth  of  87  fiet. 
It  here  loses  itself  in  perfectly  white 
foiiin.  whidi  forms  a  most  splendid 
jirospect.  I'his  spray  is  dissipated 
into  .!  thousand  shapei^,  sometimes  fly-

N,  is  180  yards  wide,  and  possesses  a 
gentle  current.  A  few  niifes  further 
it  receives  the  Tansty  fVom  the  west. 
From  this  river  the  Missouri  runs  an 
easterly  eoiires  of  382  miles,  arid  re- 
ceives nratlon  river  from  the  NW  100
